The Black Edition Color Pencils made with sleek black wood, have a wonderfully smooth and vibrant color laydown, thanks to their super soft lead. The high pigmentation of the lead makes them versatile – ideal for drawing techniques on light, colored, and even dark paper. Pure color! The ergonomic triangular shape of the pencils automatically ensures the correct grip position for optimum comfort while drawing and prevents hand fatigue when creating art. Pencils will not roll away from the work surface as well. The pre-sharpened pencils have a color-dipped end to match the lead, for easy identification when working between colors. They feature break-resistant leads produced through secure-all bonding; gluing the lead the entire length of the pencil. This results in easy sharpening, excellent point retention and ultimately longer-lasting art supplies! Environmentally friendly, the eco pencils are made of wood from certified sustainable forestry.
